Chapter One Hundred & Twelve: And Then There Were Four

Luna's Pov

Me, the trio, Leo, Nick and Alexis were in the mentor headquarters relaxing and having a good time.

Nick and Leo were playing a game of foosball.

Bree sat on a chair, on her phone texting someone.

Adam sat on a chair, with Alexis on his lap as they were watching some movies on his phone.

Me and Chase sat on the couch, he was looking at something on his tablet while I was reading one of my favorite books.

Soon we heard footsteps and turned around to see dad walking in with a huge smile on his face.

"Good news, guys. I am totally free this weekend. No meetings, no conferences. Just two fun-filled days with me" Dad smiled.

This made me smile and beam at him.

While the others looked at each other, feeling uneasy.

"So... no conferences at all? You know, if we looked really hard, I bet we could find you one" Bree said.

Dad gave her an offended look and crossed his arms.

"Are you saying you don't want to hang out with me?" Dad asked.

"Well, if she's not, I am" Adam said and Alexis nodded.

Dad glared at both of them before rolling his eyes and looking at Leo and Nick.

"Alright, what about you Leo? Nick?" Dad asked.

"Uhh... Big D, I'd love to, but I just really don't want to" Leo said, shaking his head.

"Yeah, I'm good too" Nick said.

Dad glared at them both while they shrugged at him and went back to playing foosball.

Chase chuckled and stood up from the couch, I closed my book and set it down before getting up as well.

"Don't worry, Mr. Davenport. I'll hang out with you" Chase smiled, patting his shoulder.

"Yeah, I'll join too dad. It's been a while since we've hung out" I smiled, walking towards him.

Dad smiled at the both of us as he ruffled Chase's hair and wrapped an arm around my shoulders, kissing my temple.

I giggled and laid my head on his shoulder.

We heard footsteps once again and turned around to see Douglas walking in.

However, he looked completely shocked and he had his phone in his hand. He looked like he just seen a ghost.

"Hey, Douglas" Dad smiled.

Douglas didn't say anything, his face remained the same.

I furrowed my eyebrows at him in confusion and crossed my arms.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked.

Douglas still didn't answer me, he was still looking shocked and by the looks of it, a little bit of worry.

Finally, he snapped out of it and looked at all of us.

"I just got a phone call from Daniel" Douglas said.

We all looked at each other, clearly confused, before turning to look back at him.

"Who's Daniel?" Bree asked.

Douglas took a deep breath and looked at Adam, Bree and Chase.

"Your brother" Douglas said.

This made our eyes widen in shock and our jaws drop as we looked at each other.

THEIR WHAT!!!

Adam, Bree and Chase have another brother!

Are you fucking kidding me?!

Just how many kids did Douglas make or plant bionics in?

After we somewhat got over our shock, we ushered Douglas over to the couch and sat him down. While he was sitting, we were all huddled around him, waiting for some answers.

"We have another brother?" Chase asked, clearly still in shock.

"I never told anyone, but...I actually created four bionic superhumans. Adam, Bree, Chase, and Daniel" Douglas said, sighing at the end.

We all looked at each other before looking back at him.

"What is with you naming your children in alphabetical order?" Leo asked.

"It's better than their original names. Big boy, Little Boy, and Not A Boy" Douglas scoffed, pointing at the three of them.

This made me, Alexis and Nick snort in amusement.

While Adam, Bree and Chase looked at each other confused and a bit offended.

Bree let out an annoyed sigh and clapped her hands together while looking at Douglas.

"Another brother, huh? Would it kill you to throw some lip gloss and long hair into one of your test tubes?" Bree asked in annoyance.

Douglas rolled his eyes while dad shook his head at her before turning to glare at him.

"I can't believe you never told me. Of all the rotten things you've done, this has got to be the worst" Dad sternly said.

Now it was Douglas's turn to glare at dad as he stood up from the couch.

"I had to keep the secret so Daniel would be safe. He was just a baby the day you stole these guys from me" Douglas defended.

Dad gave him an offended look and scoffed.

"Rescued!" Dad yelled.

"Stole!" Douglas yelled.

"Rescued!" Dad yelled.

"Stole!" Douglas yelled.

"Rescued!" Dad yelled.

I groaned in anger and frustration and walked over to both of them, smacking them upside the head.

"We fucking get it! You're both terrible people. Get to the point!" I angrily snapped at them.

The others snorted while dad and Douglas glared at me, rubbing the back of their heads.

Douglas let out a tired sigh before shaking his head.

"After Donnie ratted me out, I knew I'd be living on the run, so I found Daniel a nice family that was looking to adopt. That way, he could have a safe, normal life away from all my chaos" Douglas explained.

"Well how old is he?" Alexis asked.

"Thirteen. He found some old records that listed me as his biological father, and he found my phone number, and here we are" Douglas explained.

Bree shrugged and stood up, walking over to Nick and wrapping her arm around his waist.

He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and kissed her temple.

"Well, when do we get to meet him?" Bree asked.

"Whoa, whoa. I just talked to him for the first time. I don't think either one of us is ready for that" Douglas said, shaking his head.

"Well what did he say?" Alexis asked.

"That he's ready to meet me" Douglas said.

This made all of us give him a deadpan look while he sighed in annoyance.

"Okay, look, I just don't know if I'm ready to be a dad" Douglas said.

"Said the father to his three teenage kids" Bree said, gesturing to herself and her brothers.

Adam and Chase nodded before Chase walked over to him, me following behind him.

"Oh, come on. Have him visit. It'll be fun to have a little brother around" Chase begged.

"Yeah, because Leo's just some meaningless dude who's been living in your house for years" Leo angrily said.

"Thanks, Leo. Took the words right out of my mouth" Adam smiled.

Leo glared at him while Alexis pinched the bridge of her nose and smacked him upside the head.

I sighed and shook my head as Bree walked over to Douglas.

"So, can we meet him?" Bree asked, hope shining in her eyes.

We all looked at him with a pleading look in our eyes. He turned to dad who just shrugged at him, making Douglas sigh as he nodded.

"Alright. Fine" Douglas said.

"Yes!" all of us cheered.

I hugged Chase and squealed in surprise when he lifted me up and spun me around before setting me back down.

Adam pecked Alexis on the lips before walking towards Douglas.

"Dude, it all makes sense now" Adam said.

"What does?" Douglas asked, confused.

"Why you had to make a fourth. You couldn't finish with Chase. You can't end on that" Adam said, waving at Chase's body.

This made Chase give him an offended look as he looked down at his body.

The others nodded, agreeing with what he said, while I glared at Adam and hit his arm.

Nick sighed while Alexis smacked Adam's arm, shaking her head at him.

I rolled my eyes and wrapped my arm around Chase's, leaning more into him while pressing my lips to his ear.

"Don't listen to him, bubba. You've got a sexy body" I whispered seductively in his ear.

This made Chase blush bright red, making me smirk in satisfaction.

In The Common Area

We were all in the common area, waiting for Daniel to arrive.

Me, Bree, Chase and Nick were talking with dad. While Leo, Adam and Alexis were by one of the consoles.

Douglas walked over to us as we turned to look at him.

"Heads up, guys. Daniel should be here any minute" Douglas said.

This made me smile as I laid my head on Chase's shoulder. He wrapped an arm around my waist, pulling me closer to his side.

"All right. Since having all these new dads and brothers is getting confusing, I drew a family tree". Here's what I got" Adam said.

This made me and the others interested in what he had as we walked over to him.

But based on the looks on Alexis and Leo's face, it wasn't anything good.

When we were close to them Adam held up his drawing and began examining it.

"Chase, you are my wife" Adam said.

"Excuse me?" me and Alexis asked, giving him an incredulous look.

This made Chase look at him weirdly while Adam looked at him with a frown on his face.

Bree giggled while Nick hid his face in Bree's hair, trying to hide his laughter.

"I wonder what Daniel's gonna be like. Do you think he'll have super strength like Adam? Ooh! Or super speed like Bree?" Chase asked.

"Or be a total disappointment like you?" Adam asked, drawing something on his paper.

This made me glare at him while Alexis smacked him upside the head.

Adam noticed the offended look on Chase's face and gently patted his cheek.

"No offense, honey" Adam said.

Chase glared at him and smacked his hand away, making Adam glare back at him.

"Oh, um, speaking of Daniel, there is one other little thing. He doesn't know he's bionic" Douglas said.

All of our eyes widen in shock as dad gave Douglas a look of disbelief. 

"Wh...what?" Dad asked.

"Well, he has a chip like you three, but since he doesn't have a capsule, his bionics have never been activated" Douglas explained.

"You didn't tell him he's bionic?" Alexis asked.

"Y'know, every time you say no more secrets, another one pops up. And just when we were starting to trust you again" Dad scoffed.

This made me, Alexis and Bree look at him weirdly as we shook our heads at him.

"I don't trust him. Half those bracelets he's wearing are Tasha's" Bree said.

Dad's eyes widened as he looked down at Douglas's wrist, only to see him covering it.

"Yeah, I caught him trying to steal my favorite necklace that Luna bought me" Alexis said, glaring angrily at him.

"And he nearly stole the promise ring that Chase gave me for my 16th birthday" I angrily said.

This made everyone gasp as their eyes widen in shock.

Everyone turned to look at Chase, only to flinch when they saw him glaring at Douglas like he wanted to kill him.

Douglas let out a nervous chuckle while rubbing the back of his neck.

I giggled lightly before grabbing Chase's arm and wrapped it around my shoulder, using my other arm to wrap around his waist.

This seemed to calm him down as he pulled me closer to his side, keeping me close.

Everyone smiled at us as Douglas let out a sigh of relief.

"And you can trust me!" Douglas yelled, looking slightly offended.

Dad rolled his eyes as Douglas turned around before turning back around to look at us.

"Oh, but before I forget, since everyone thinks Donnie's your dad, let's just go with that and tell Daniel you're his cousins" Douglas said, gesturing to Adam, Bree and Chase.

"See? More lies!" Dad yelled, throwing his hands up in frustration.

"Mm, nope, he's telling the truth on this one, uh, Uncle Mr. Davenport" Adam said.

Well, alright then.

Dad gave Adam a look before turning back around to look at Douglas.

"You know, I'm not the only person in this family who lies. You never told Leo you ran over his iguana, and replaced it with a robot" Douglas said.

This made Leo's eyes widen in shock as his jaw dropped to the ground.

Douglas smirked at the look on dad's face as Leo turned to look at him.

"Iggy was a robot?" Leo asked, looking sad and betrayed.

"Well- yeah- but...I mean, the fact that you didn't notice, you gotta respect the design" Dad said, smirking slightly.

Thankfully we heard the hydraloop arriving, ending this conversation.

"Guys, he's here" Chase said.

"Really, didn't notice" I sarcastically said.

Chase rolled his eyes at me and gently pinched my shoulder, making me yelp and glare at him.

He smirked before grunting in pain when I kicked his leg.

We all stood next to each other as the doors opened to reveal Daniel, who was carrying a bag and looking around.

"Whoa! Sweet digs" Daniel smiled.

We all smiled at him as he exited the hydraloop and walked towards us.

Douglas then walked towards him, an excited yet awkward smile on his face.

"Hi, buddy. I'm your daddy, Douglas" Douglas smiled, gently booping Daniel on the nose.

Me and Alexis facepalmed while Bree and Nick shook their heads as the others quietly groaned.

Daniel gave Douglas a deadpan look before placing his hands on his hips.

"I know these pants are baggy, but does it look like I'm wearing a diaper?" Daniel asked.

This made me and the girls snort as we looked at each other.

"I like this kid already" Alexis smirked.

"Same" me and Bree smirked.

"Sorry" Douglas said, rubbing the back of his neck.

He gently wrapped his arm around his shoulder as he guided him to where we were.

"This is Adam, Bree, Chase, and Leo" Douglas said as he removed his arm from his shoulder.

"This might sound weird because we just met, but I'm gonna call you Danielle" Bree smiled, putting her hand on his shoulder.

Daniel gave her a weird look as Nick sighed and gently pulled Bree to his side.

I laughed and shook my head, gaining Daniel's attention as he turned to look at me.

"Who are they?" Daniel asked, gesturing to me, Alexis and Nick.

"That's Luna Walker, my adopted niece, my brother's adopted daughter" Douglas said.

"My beautiful and badass girlfriend" Chase smiled, kissing my temple.

"And they're Alexis and Nick Krane. They're Luna's half siblings. Alexis is Adam's girlfriend and Nick is Bree's boyfriend" Douglas explained.

Daniel smiled at that and nodded before dad walked over to him.

"All right, time to drop the whole father-son reunion charade and admit the real reason why you're here...to meet your uncle Donald" Dad grinned.

Me and the others rolled our eyes as Daniel shook his hand, the smile still on his face.

"Wow. So I get a brand-new dad, an uncle, all these cousins, an adopted hot cousin and two new friends" Daniel smiled.

This made my eyes slightly widen, did he just call me hot?

Chase realized what he said too and glared at him, pulling me closer by the waist.

"Ha, yep, we're your cousins. That's how we're related, right, Adam?" Chase asked.

We all turned to look at Adam, only to see him looking at the family tree he drew.

"I don't know. According to this, I died 35 years ago" Adam said, turning his drawing around so we could look at it.

None of us really knew what to say other than sigh and roll our eyes at him.

Alexis pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed, lying her head on his shoulder.

In The Mentor Headquarters

Douglas and Daniel went to go hang out and get to know each other better, so me and the others decided to head back to the mentor headquarters and hang out.

Chase was sitting on a chair, reading a book, while I was sitting on his lap while playing games on my phone.

Bree was sitting on the couch with Nick, they were hugging each other while watching a movie on Bree's laptop.

Alexis was sitting on a chair, writing something in her notebook.

Adam was currently wrapping presents, quite loudly might I add, and Leo was just watching him in confusion.

We were all annoyed because Adam was wrapping the presents so loudly when we wanted nothing more than for him to be quiet.

"Babe, I love you, I really do, but will you stop that!" Alexis snapped.

We all flinched while Adam stopped and looked at her in confusion.

"Yeah, and why are you wrapping presents anyway?" Bree asked.

"They're for Daniel. I have to make up for thirteen years of never giving him a birthday present" Adam said.

Chase gently lifted me off his lap and set me down on the chair as he got up and walked over to Adam.

He picked up a small baby rattle and looked at Adam in confusion.

"A baby rattle?" Chase asked.

"Oh that's not for him. That's for you when you turn thirteen" Adam chuckled.

Chase rolled his eyes and threw the rattle before walking back towards me.

He picked me up before sitting down as he placed my back on his lap. I sighed and put my phone in my pocket and snuggled into his chest. I smiled when he wrapped his arms around me and kissed my head.

Then dad walked in as we turned to look at him.

"Good news. It looks like Douglas and Daniel are already starting to bond" Dad smiled.

We all smiled back at him while Leo glared at him.

"Bond, huh. Kinda like how you forced Iggy to bond with the driveway?" Leo angrily said.

"It wasn't the driveway. It was the curb. You rode your bike over him for like a month" Dad said.

This made Leo gasp as he covered his mouth in horror.

"I cannot believe you lied to him all these years. You are just as bad as Douglas" Bree said, shaking his head in disbelief.

"Oh, you're one to talk. What about the time you threw away that coat Adam made out of beef jerky?" Dad asked, glaring down at her.

This made Adam's eyes widen in shock as he gasped and dropped whatever he was holding.

Bree's eye widen in shock as she looked at Adam, who pointed a finger at her.

"You told me Tasha threw that away" Adam said.

Bree shook her head and pulled away from Nick as she stood up. She tried speaking but dad beat her to it.

"No, not only did she throw it away. She ate a sleeve" Dad smirked.

Adam let out a strangled cry, making me and the others look at him weirdly.

"You monster!" Adam yelled, covering his face with his fist.

Alexis sighed as she put her notebook down and stood up and walked over to Adam, gently patting his back for comfort.

"Mr. Davenport, how could you?" Bree asked, looking at him in slight betrayal.

"I had to. It was the only way I could get people to stop talking about Leo's dead pets" Dad said.

This made Leo's eyes widen even more.

"Pets? With an s?" Leo asked in shock.

Dad's eyes widen when he realized what he said as he looked at us.

"Gotta go" Dad said before quickly sprinting out the room.

Adam and Leo looked at each other, completely heartbroken over the news, as Alexis was trying to comfort both of them.

Bree sighed and sat back down next to Nick, who wrapped his arms around her and kissed her head for comfort.

Me and Chase looked at each other before shrugging as we went back to whatever we were doing before.

A Few Hours Later

A few hours had passed and me and the others were still in the common area hanging out.

Nick and Bree were sitting next to each other eating noodles. Leo was walking around while reading something. Adam and Alexis went to go take a nap.

Chase was currently working on something on his laptop while I was heating up some noodles since we were both getting hungry. Seeing Nick and Bree eat theirs made us hungry as well.

I heard footsteps and turned around to see Adam and Alexis walking in, holding hands.

Just by looking at their slightly messy hair, their swollen lips and flushed cheeks I can tell they did more than sleeping.

It's how me and Chase look after our...passionate moments together.

Alexis kissed Adam on the cheek before walking towards the couch.

Adam made his way to where Nick and Bree were and when Bree saw him she set her noodles down.

"Hey, Adam, I-" Bree started but he cut her off.

"Sorry. Can't talk right now. I have to go put on my Swiss cheese shorts before you throw those away, too" Adam said.

Bree sighed in slight annoyance while me and Chase looked at him weirdly.

"Hey, don't forget to put on your pepperoni pants" Leo said.

"Leo, don't be silly. Everyone knows you don't wear pepperoni after Labor Day" Adam said.

Once again, me, Chase and Nick looked at him weirdly. While Alexis sighed and shook her head, a smile on her face.

"Look, Adam, I know you're mad, but can you please just let it go?" Bree asked.

"No! I would never do anything that cruel" Adam said.

I scoffed lightly at that while Bree raised an eyebrow at him, smirking.

"Really? How about that time we snuck out to the amusement park?" Bree asked.

This made Chase look at them in confusion while I sighed, already knowing where this was going.

"What amusement park?" Adam asked.

Bree raised another eyebrow at him and his eyes widened in realization.

"Oh, you mean the time we lied to Chase and said we went on an eight-hour training run" Adam said.

Bree smirked and nodded.

I looked at Chase and saw that his eyes were wide in shock and anger.

He sat up from his chair and walked over to them, me following behind him after making sure the noodles were ready.

"What?! Why wouldn't you invite me...to either of those things?!" Chase angrily asked.

"You see that tone right there? That's why" Adam said.

Chase glared at him while I rolled my eyes and gently laid my head on his shoulder.

"Man, I guess I've done two cruel things. Ah, no, three. There's also the time I melted Bree's bike" Adam smirked.

My eyes widened at that while Chase smirked.

I looked at Bree and saw her staring at him with wide eyes in shock.

"Excuse me?! You used your heat vision on my bike?" Bree asked.

"No. Blow torch" Adam said, thinking it would make things better.

Thankfully before anything else could happen Daniel walked into the room.

"Hey, guys" Daniel smiled.

"Hey" we all smiled at him.

We all stopped what we were doing and walked towards him.

"Would it be cool if I take some pictures?" Daniel asked.

"Sure. Head shots are right there. Five bucks if you want me to sign it, ten if you want me to write 'your friend, Adam'" Adam grinned.

This made Daniel look at him weirdly as Alexis smacked him upside the head.

Leo gave Adam a weird look before walking towards Daniel, taking his phone.

"Okay. How about we get one of you inside a capsule?" Leo suggested.

"Sweet. Sounds good to me" Daniel grinned.

Leo nodded as they both walked towards the capsules.

Daniel walked inside one and I swear I heard something coming from inside it, but I brushed it off, thinking it was nothing.

"Ready?" Leo asked.

Daniel nodded and did a pose before Leo took the photo.

Leo smiled and nodded as Daniel looked at us.

"Can I get a shot with you guys, too?" Daniel asked, gesturing to me and the trio.

"Of course" Chase grinned.

"No" Adam scoffed.

We all gave him weird and annoyed looks and he just shrugged at us.

"Hey, I offered him a head shot. He had his chance" Adam said.

We all glared at him as Alexis smacked him upside the head, again, making Adam wince in pain as we all walked towards him.

"We'd be happy to, Daniel" Bree smiled.

We all smiled and nodded as me and the trio walked towards him while Leo, Alexis and Nick stayed back.

The four of us huddled around Daniel as Leo took the photo.

But when Bree put her hand on Daniel's shoulder a weird whooshing noise was heard and we all looked at them.

"Whoa. What was that?" Bree asked, confused.

"Definitely didn't come from the bionic chip he doesn't have" Adam said.

This made me and Bree smack his arms, making him groan in pain while the others rolled their eyes.

I turned to look at Daniel and saw him holding onto his chest, looking like he was ready to pass out.

"Daniel, buddy, are you alright?" I asked, worried.

"I don't know. I feel weird. I'm gonna go find my dad" Daniel said.

Daniel went to walk out of the room but then our eyes widened when he ended up superspeeding instead.

He crashed into a wall and dropped to the ground, groaning in pain.

"What just happened?" Bree asked.

"Oh no, I think we just activated his bionics" Leo said, realization dawning on him.

"Well, he sure didn't get the smart chip. He just ran into a wall" Adam chuckled.

Once again, me and Bree smacked his arms, making him groan in pain.

Alexis and Nick quickly ran over to Daniel and grabbed him by the arms and pulled him up. They brought him over to the couch and sat him down as the rest of us huddled around him.

I geo-leaped out of the room before geo-leaping back with an ice pack in my hands.

I handed it to Daniel and he immediately put it on his head.

Alexis handed Adam a magazine so he could fan Daniel, but he ended up fanning himself.

We all gave him looks of disbelief before gesturing him to fan Daniel. He did so but while doing that dad and Douglas entered the room, and when their eyes landed on Daniel they immediately rushed towards us.

"What happened?" Dad asked, worried.

"I don't know. I was taking a picture in the capsule, and the next thing I know, I was speeding into a wall" Daniel explained.

Dad and Douglas looked at us and we nodded, confirming that it was true.

Dad sighed before turning to look at Douglas in annoyance.

"The capsule. It must have activated his bionic chip" Dad whispered, trying to be quiet.

But he wasn't quiet enough because Daniel still heard him, to be honest we all did.

"I have a bionic chip?" Daniel asked, his eyes wide in shock.

This made dad and Douglas's eyes widen as they looked at each other before looking at Daniel.

"Uh...Surprise!" Douglas grinned.

I rolled my eyes while Daniel looked unimpressed and continued staring at him.

"Wait, so Daniel has super speed, too?" Leo asked.

Douglas sighed and shook his head.

"Not exactly" Douglas said.

He looked at Daniel before walking towards him as he sat on the arm of the couch.

"I gave you an ability called power replication. You can absorb the abilities of any bionic person you touch. But if you touch another person, their powers replace the first one" Douglas explained.

All of our eyes widen in shock and our jaws drop to the ground.

That's the coolest bionic ability ever. Damn, this kid is lucky.

"Are you serious? I'm bionic?" Daniel asked, looking at his arms.

"You told me you never figured out power replication" Dad said, looking at Douglas in anger.

"Uh...Surprise!" Douglas grinned nervously at him.

I rolled my eyes at that and shook my head while dad glared down at Douglas.

"Well, what do you know? He lied to you, just like you did about Iggy, and others. You're a walking pet cemetery!" Leo angrily yelled.

Dad just gave him a look of disbelief while Adam decided to speak.

"Well, it's not as bad as Bree eating my jerky jacket. Have you seen your coat lately? You may notice a sleeve missing" Adam said.

"You ate my winter jacket?" Bree asked in disbelief.

"And your leather skirt. It was a wardrobe buffet" Adam grinned.

That's...that's just weird.

"Well, at least you all had fun at the amusement park" Chase said.

"Not as much fun as we had at your 16th birthday party" Bree smirked.

"I never had a 16th birthday party" Chase scoffed.

"Yeah, you did. You just weren't invited" Bree chuckled.

"What?" Chase asked, anger coursing through his eyes.

"I blew out your candles" Leo grinned.

"He blew 'em out" Adam grinned.

Chase looked angry as hell, that's an understatement, he tried thinking of something to say but nothing came out of his mouth.

"Sweetheart, did you know about this?" Chase asked.

"I did, but I didn't go with them" I shrugged.

"It's true, we invited Luna to the amusement park and your 16th birthday but she refused. Why do you think she was the only one with you those days?" Leo asked.

Chase glared at him before turning to me, his eyes softening.

"You really didn't go?" Chase softly asked.

"Of course I didn't go, bubba. I wouldn't do that to you" I softly said.

Chase smiled at me and kissed my forehead as he wrapped his arms around my shoulder and turned to the others.

"It's good to know that at least my amazing girlfriend would never do something as rude as that" Chase angrily spat at the others.

The others glared at him while I sighed and shook my head.

"Guys, come on, don't fight over things that happened a long time ago. It's not worth holding a grudge" I said.

"Oh really? Well, do you remember that day you came home from school to cuddle with your teddy bear but couldn't find it?" Bree asked.

"Yeah but Tasha accidentally threw it out" I shrugged.

"Wrong, Chase destroyed it and threw it in the garbage" Bree smirked.

This made my eyes widen in shock and my jaw dropped. I turned to look at Chase who was staring at me with nervous eyes.

"Excuse me!" I yelled, pulling away from him.

"I didn't mean to. I was playing with it when I accidentally dropped it and it fell in one of Mr. Davenport's inventions. It got destroyed and I didn't know what else to do other than get rid of it" Chase defended.

"Are you kidding me? I blamed Tasha for it and gave her the silent treatment for a week!" I angrily yelled at him.

Before we knew it we all began arguing and yelling, clearly angry.

Dad and Douglas were looking at us in worry and slight annoyance.

While Alexis and Nick were literally sitting on the couch, watching us while eating their leftover noodles.

"Excuse me!" Daniel yelled, standing up.

We all stopped arguing and yelling and turned around to look at him.

"I'm pretty sure the biggest lie is my dad not telling me I'm bionic" Daniel said, turning around to glare at Douglas.

Douglas opened his mouth to say something but Adam beat him to it.

"Really? I think the biggest lie is we're not your cousins, we're your brothers and sister" Adam chuckled, gesturing to the him, Bree and Chase.

Our eyes widen as we look at Adam in disbelief and hit him in the chest.

Adam's eyes widen when he realized what he said and he smacked himself with his hand.

"You lied to me about that, too" Daniel said, his tone filled with nothing but anger

"I swear, I was coming in here to tell you the truth about everything" Douglas said.

"Sure you were" Daniel scoffed.

He shook his head and began leaving the room, making Douglas sigh as he turned to look at us.

"See? This is why I didn't want him coming here. I never should have let you all push me into it" Douglas angrily snapped.

My eyes widen when I saw Daniel turning back around, my heart broke when I saw the heartbroken look on his face.

"You don't even want me here?" Daniel asked, his tone showing nothing but sadness and betrayal.

Douglas turned around and looked at him. He sighed and walked over to him.

"Of course I...I just meant-" Douglas started but Daniel cut him off.

"Well, you know what? Forget it. You said we made a good team. Guess you lied about that, too" Daniel scoffed.

He rolled his eyes before turning around and leaving the room.

We all stood where we were, awkward silence filling the room as none of us knew what to say.

"This never would've happened with a sister. Just saying" Bree shrugged.

We all gave her looks of disbelief as I gently hit her arm, shaking my head at her.

At The Beach

Me and Leo had left the academy to go find Daniel and talk to him.

We made it to the beach and found him skipping rocks into the ocean. I smiled slightly as we walked towards him.

"Hey, what are you doing out here?" Leo asked.

"Skipping rocks and blowing kisses to those girls on that yacht" Daniel grinned.

He blew a kiss to the 'girls' on the 'yacht' as me and Leo looked at him weirdly.

"Uh, that's not a yacht. That's a shrimp boat, and those girls are not girls" I said and Leo nodded.

"Oh" Daniel said.

He sighed and shook his head before going back to what he was doing.

"Look, I know you're upset. But Douglas is a good guy. It's not that he didn't want you here. He just didn't want to mess up your normal life" Leo explained.

I nodded while Daniel raised an eyebrow at us.

"The dude stuck a computer chip in my neck. I think we're way past normal" Daniel scoffed.

Me and Leo looked at each other and nodded slightly while Daniel went back to skipping rocks.

I sighed and made my way towards him, wrapping my arm around his shoulders.

"Look, Daniel, please understand that Douglas wasn't always the good guy. Before he was the bad guy, he wanted revenge on my father. He just didn't want you to get involved in his problems and thought that it was better to give you to another family so you could live a normal life. Despite the fact that he put a computer chip in your neck, he really does care about you, just like he cares about Adam, Bree and Chase" I explained.

Daniel looked up at me and I could see something in his eyes but I couldn't tell what it was.

He sighed and went back to skipping rocks, making me shake my head.

"Here. Let me show you how to really skip something" Leo grinned.

He held out his bionic arm and a laser sphere appeared around his hand.

Daniel looked at it with wide eyes before Leo threw the sphere into the water.

"Whoa. Sweet! I wish I could do that" Daniel said.

"Well, you can if you use your new ability" I smiled.

"Really?" Daniel asked.

"Yeah. Here. Touch my arm. Just don't get overwhelmed by all the muscle" Leo grinned.

Me and Daniel looked at each other before looking at him with raised eyebrows.

"What muscle?" we asked.

"Just touch it" Leo deadpanned.

I giggled while Daniel nodded and touched his arm.

"Ok, now hold up your hand" Leo said.

Daniel nodded and held up his hand and a laser sphere appeared around his hand, making me smile.

"Whoa! Cool" Daniel grinned.

Me and Leo nodded before the grin on Daniel's face disappeared and was replaced with a frown.

"Hot. Hot! Hot!" Daniel yelled.

"Throw it!" I yelled.

Daniel quickly threw it at the ocean, making me sigh in relief before smiling at him.

"Not bad" I nodded.

"Yeah. Mine went further than Leo's" Daniel said.

"It's not a competition, Daniel" Leo said, his tone defensive.

Daniel frowned while I smacked Leo upside the head, shaking my head at him.

Leo winced in pain before sighing and shaking his head as he looked at Daniel.

"Here. Check it out. Curve ball" Leo grinned.

Another laser sphere appeared around his hand as he fired a curve ball at the ocean.

"Oh, I bet I can do that, too" Daniel grinned.

Mine and Leo's eyes went wide as he conjured up a laser sphere.

"Daniel, no!" I yelled.

But it was too late, he threw a curve ball at the ocean, but it rebounded and came right at us.

I quickly grabbed the both of them by their arms and ducked down, but the laser sphere ended up hitting the fuel tank.

Our eyes went wide and our jaws dropped as we slowly stood up.

"What did I do?" Daniel asked in worry.

We walked over to the fuel tank and saw a crack in the tank and smoke coming out of it.

"Your laser sphere cracked the fuel tank. That's the hydrogen that fuels the hydraloop. Without it, we'll be stuck on the island" I explained.

"Come on. We need to get help" Leo said.

I nodded and was about to grab their arms and geo-leap us back to the academy, when Daniel starts jumping up and down frantically.

Me and Leo looked at him weirdly.

"What are you doing?" Leo asked.

"Waving down that shrimp boat. I'm trying to get a ride home before my dad finds out" Daniel said, still jumping up and down.

I sighed in annoyance and turned to Leo.

"Dooley, hurry and get the others, I'll stay here with Daniel" I said.

"Got it" Leo nodded before running off.

I sighed and tried coming up with ideas to close the crack in the tank but nothing really came to mind.

Damn, where's Chase when you need him?

A few minutes passed and another crack opened up, causing more smoke to come out from the tank. It was getting worse and worse.

I turned around and sighed in relief when I saw Leo running towards us.

"It's getting worse. Another crack opened up" Daniel said.

"Adam, Bree, Chase, Alexis and Nick are on their way" Leo said and I nodded.

"Can't you just stick your bionic fingers in there to stop the gas from coming out?" Daniel asked.

"My fingers aren't bionic. It's just my arm" Leo said.

"Oh, really? That's just kinda sad" Daniel said.

This made me snort while Leo glared at him in annoyance.

I sighed in relief when the others finally came into view, running towards us.

"Sweetheart!" Chase yelled.

He ran towards me and engulfed me in a tight hug, making me hug him back.

We pulled away as he cupped my face and scanned me up and down for injuries.

"Are you ok? Are you hurt?" Chase asked.

"I'm fine" I nodded.

He sighed in relief and kissed my forehead before turning to look at Leo.

"Leo, what happened?" Chase asked.

"Daniel accidentally fired a laser sphere into the hydraloop fuel tank" Leo said.

The others looked at him in shock while Adam sighed and shook his head.

"Alright, Daniel, over the knee. It's time for your first bionic spanking" Adam said, sitting down on a rock and patting his knee.

Daniel gave him a weird look as Alexis grabbed his arm and pulled him up.

"The first crack must've let oxygen into the tank, which means that the pressure has intensified. If we don't stop those leaks, that thing is gonna blow and take out the whole island" Chase explained.

"Stop being so dramatic. It's just a few little cracks" Leo scoffed.

He walked towards the tank but backed away when more cracks appear on the tank.

"What are we gonna do?!" Leo asked in a high-pitched shriek.

Me and Alexis rolled our eyes while Bree and Nick snorted in amusement.

"Maybe I can use my heat vision to seal the cracks" Adam said as he walked over to Chase.

"No, Adam, that gas is flammable" Chase said.

"Well, how else are we supposed to stop the leaks?" Nick asked.

"Wait a second. What if we do the opposite? Adam, use your enhanced lung capacity to freeze the outside of the tank" Bree said.

"On it" Adam nodded.

"Hurry! It's gonna explode!" Leo yelled.

Adam nodded and quickly walked forward while the rest of us stayed back.

Adam quickly activated his enhanced lung capacity to freeze the tank but then he stopped.

"It's not working" Adam said, looking worried.

"Well then what do we do?" Alexis asked, clinging onto my arm.

"Wait. Guys, can't I replicate his lung capacity and double the force?" Daniel asked.

We all glanced at each other and realized that that could actually work.

Damn, why didn't we think of that?

"Uh, yes. Yes, you can. Daniel, touch Adam" Chase said.

Daniel nodded and ran towards Adam and touched his arm.

"Ok, now what?" Daniel asked.

"Blow!" all of us, minus Adam, yelled.

They both nodded and quickly began blowing at the tank.

We all watched with wide eyes when we saw that the tank was slowly freezing up.

"Hey, it's working" Alexis grinned.

"Aw, man, I want power replication" Leo whined.

"Me too" Nick whined.

Me, Alexis and Chase gave them deadpan looks while Bree sighed and gently patted Nick's arm.

Finally Adam and Daniel were done and the tank was frozen.

"Yes!" I yelled, a grin appearing on my face.

We all ran over to them and hugged them, Alexis kissing Adam on the cheek.

We pulled away as Bree gently patted Daniel on the back.

"Great job, Daniel. You completed your first bionic mission" Leo smiled.

"That was awesome. I gotta go tell my dad" Daniel grinned.

He tried running but ended up superspeeding into a rock and fell to the ground.

Me and the others winced at the impact while Adam chuckled.

"Hey, keep making bionic kids, eventually you're gonna get a dumb one" Adam said.

We all glared at him as Alexis hit his arm before I ran over to Daniel to help him up.

Back At The Academy

We all made it back at the academy and were now in the mentor headquarters.

We were all sitting while Leo and Nick were standing.

"So did you tell your dad about how you froze the fuel tank?" Alexis asked.

"Yep, but I might not have told him I was the one who cracked it" Daniel said.

We all gave him looks of disbelief before letting out small laughs as we shook our heads.

"He's gonna be really mad, huh?" Daniel asked.

"Yeah. Unless he doesn't find out about it" Bree smiled.

"So we're gonna lie?" Daniel asked.

"Sounds good" Leo nodded.

"Works for me" Chase nodded.

"It's kinda what we do" Adam grinned, wrapping an arm around Alexis's waist.

"Besides, it's not so much a lie as a bionic secret" Chase smirked, winking at him.

"I'm liking my new family" Daniel smiled.

We all smiled at him and nodded and just then Douglas walked into the room. 

"Guys, uh...can you give me a sec with Daniel?" Douglas asked.

"Absolutely. We don't wanna watch this train wreck" Adam said.

We all nodded and quickly ran out of the room, leaving Douglas and Daniel alone.

A Few Minutes Later

As sad as it was, it was time for Daniel to head back home.

He was with dad and Douglas, getting his things ready, while the rest of us were waiting in the common area.

"Guys, I think it's time we clear the air about all the lying" Bree said and we all nodded.

"Yeah" Adam nodded.

He set his drawing down before turning to look at Chase.

"Sorry for not inviting you to the amusement park, or your birthday party" Adam said.

Bree and Leo nodded, frowns on their faces as guilt coursed through their eyes.

"Oh, it's okay, Adam. I would've ruined the fun anyway" Chase shrugged.

"Hey, Adam, sorry about your jacket. I felt so bad, I made you some beef jerky glasses" Bree smiled.

She held up the beef jerky glasses in her hands, making all of us smile.

"Oh, I already got a pair, but thank you" Adam smiled.

Bree shrug and took a bite out of the glasses.

"Sweetheart, I'm sorry for accidentally destroying your teddy bear. I was just scared of how you would've reacted" Chase softly said.

"It's fine, bubba. I get it. Besides, I already texted Tasha and apologized for blaming her and giving her the silent treatment. I also went online and bought her lots of new clothes and shoes to make up for it" I smiled.

Chase chuckled at that before giving me a kiss on the forehead, making me smile even more.

We heard footsteps and turned around to see Daniel, dad and Douglas walking to the hydraloop.

"Hey, everybody, Daniel's taking off" Douglas said.

We all walked over to them as Leo gently patted Daniel on the shoulder.

"Hey, bye, Daniel. It was great hanging out with you" Leo smiled.

"Yeah, man, you're the best surprise brother we've ever had" Chase smiled.

Leo turned to glare at him as the smile on Chase's face disappeared.

"No offense, Leo" Chase said.

"Yeah, we still like you. You're just old news" Adam shrugged.

Leo rolled his eyes and turned away as Nick chuckled and wrapped an arm around his shoulder.

"So, I know you gotta get back to the mainland, but, uh, maybe you can come back and visit in a couple of weeks" Douglas shrugged.

"Or sooner, if I need some extra cash" Daniel smiled.

"Are you blackmailing me?" Douglas asked.

"Yep" Daniel smirked.

This made me and the others laugh while Douglas smiled and chuckled.

"That's my boy" Douglas said, gently punching his shoulder.

"Oh, hey, if you ever wanna hang out with just your Uncle Donald, say the word" Dad smiled.

"You know what? I gotta go" Daniel said before hurrying to get on the hydraloop.

This made me and the others laugh while dad had an offended look on his face.

A Few Hours Later
In The Mentor Headquarters

"Sweetheart, where are we going?" Chase asked.

"You'll see" I smiled.

"Why are you covering my eyes?" Chase asked.

"Because that's the whole point of the surprise. Besides, it's payback for all those times you covered my eyes" I shrugged.

Chase chuckled and nodded as I guided him to the mentor headquarters.

I quickly turned on the lights before looking at him.

"Ok, here we are" I smiled before removing my hands from his eyes.

When his eyes were uncovered and he looked at the room, his eyes widened in shock and disbelief and his jaw dropped.

The mentor headquarters room was decorated with party stuff. Balloons and streamers were all around the room. Games were scattered around the ground. Snacks were near the couch with the T.V turned on, ready for us to watch movies or play video games.

There was a huge banner that said 'Happy 16th birthday to the most amazing boyfriend ever'.

Last but not least, there was a chocolate cake on the table near the couch.

I smiled and laughed at the shocked look on my boyfriends face.

When he snapped out of it he looked at me in confusion.

"Sweetheart, what is all of this?" Chase asked.

"Oh come on, bubba, this is all for you" I smiled.

"You did this? But why?" Chase asked.

"Because I felt bad that the others didn't invite you to the amusement park or your own party. I know I didn't go but I still feel bad that I didn't at least do something for you. So, to make up for it, I organized all of this for you" I smiled.

Chase continued looking around in shock, making me smile even more.

I let out an 'oh' sound and quickly took out a red box from my pocket and handed it to Chase.

"For you" I smiled.

"Sweetheart" Chase softly said.

"Open it" I said, urging him to do so.

He chuckled and nodded before opening the box and what he saw inside made him gasp.

It was a bracelet with writing on it.

I smiled softly at him as he looked up at me with wide eyes in shock.

Tears streamed down his face and before I could ask anything he lunged forward and smashed his lips onto mine.

I let out a small squeal before slowly kissing him back.

He wrapped his arms around my waist while I wrapped my arms around his neck.

The kiss was filled with nothing but love and passion.

We slowly pulled away to catch our breath, panting slightly with our foreheads touching.

Chase looked into my eyes and a smile appeared on his beautiful face.

"I seriously don't understand how I managed to get someone as beautiful, sweet, caring and loving as you as my girlfriend" Chase softly said.

"I should be the one asking that" I softly said.

"I love you, Luna Walker" Chase smiled.

"And I love you, Chase Davenport" I smiled.

We pressed our lips against each other one last time before pulling away.

"Come on, lets get this party started" I smiled.

Chase chuckled at that and nodded as I grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the couch where the snacks were.

For the entire day we did nothing other than play games, watch movies, eat snacks and eat games in the mentor headquarters. We cut the cake and cuddled on the couch, watching more movies together before we fell asleep.

I'm glad that I did this for Chase. Because seeing him smile and laugh always makes my day.

I love him and he loves me. He's the only one for me and nothing will ever change that.
